Hello beautiful minds, Joel Godfrey ikwu is my name, I'm a fashion designer, currently running my undergraduate program in business administration at the prestigious business school, Ahmadu Bello University, zaria. the experience over the years has shaped my life in diverse pace of life, say my fashion designing business has impacted on my personality, most times when am dressed while on my way to catch up with an appointment I whisper to myself with an affirmative tone guy you look unique and stay fly in your style , in this respect how you dress measure how people address you in a major way, having a good sense of fashion goes beyond just having clothes on, but it builds an identity which translate from without to within. In the sense that it builds your confidence and it make you feel good about yourself in a good way.... You know what I mean lol. 
My academic pursuit has been an adventurous journey, right from when I got admitted I remember how  happy I was when I got the admission....my trip to zaria to  further process my registration.

I didn't know anyone there, on arrival there was a long queue for the screening process I was stressed out dehydrated I could not leave the queue to get my thirst quenched, then after the long wait when it finally got to my turn they noticed that there was a mistake on my admission letter then there I was asked to come back the next day for collection, my countenance was pale instantly......time is said to be the proof of life having said all this the unexpected happened, supposedly I should have been a graduate, but eventuality that are beyond  control, the likes of the covid-19 pandemic and the savage of ASSU strikes that never yields a sustainable solutions over the years. This experience has cultured and taught me the discipline of being resilience through pain, and unfortunate events that ride on the wings of time. it also makes sense, disappointment are only temporary. whatever life throws your way you always have a choice to make the best out of it or allow that situation get the worst of you, Choose wisely. 
Experience is said to be the best teacher, but  there is another thought to this quote experience is the mother of all wisdom, depth of knowledge, over the years I have learnt that Life become more important and interesting as I grow older, as it opens me to a whole new world, where you have limitless possibilities.

 I once had the opportunity to watch an infant experience growth from the day, that baby drew the first breath ,this moment created an atmosphere filled with laughter and shared joy as hands sort to held that baby with welcoming glimpse soft smile and words of blessings in kinds and substance, weeks and months kept coming with surprises as it is commonly known new born begin to gain awareness of it's environment, the new born the baby in a max of 6month begins to mutter words, crawl, max of 9month that baby started walking.

In contrast my life has evolved like this new born got to know  about the hive block chain through a friend that believes in that shared joý experienced by those who have lived before that new born Drew the first breath, 
i'm pleased to be here with the hope to contribute to this company of hivers positively. 
Sustainable living, must capture the god factor and the interest of Humanity at heart, lifes is dynamic and it's finding the balance of afore mentioned factor that makes life meaningful. I believe strongly that your life would be meaningless without your neighbor, the essence of life is centered around the greatest investment God made Mankind. In addition I want to appreciate my able capacitated hive team,a  class held on our telegram page which explains how decentralized the hive block chain's operating system works, I got to know about the hive power crypto currency which enables hivers buy and exchange within and on other crypto platforms, on the hive block chain and it opens for social interaction between hivers across the world through the class, before I got onboarded on the hivers platform and cudos, @ovey10 for the eye opening knowledge impacted through the class preceeding and information about hive blockchain..... I hope for a wonderful time here, Thank you all.
